“Renee is amazing!!! She is always punctual, gives me a full run-down of her time with Rocco, pics included. She knows how to deal with a large dog, especially a 131 lb Rottie! My dog absolutely adores his time with her. She is my life-saver for when I need to travel and to get some work done!! A true dog lover... I would recommend her 1000x over.”


“Keasha genuinely loves animals and quickly built a rapport with Lily. She came home grateful for her water bowl and doggie bed. We have found a great dog walker for our fur baby.”



“Michelle is wonderful! This was my first time booking Michelle. She stopped by in advance to meet our two dogs and was sweet to them and made sure she knew where everything they needed or liked was so she could make them happy and comfortable when we planned for her to care for them. Michelle completed two one-hour walks for us today and gave the dogs time to play, walk, relieve themselves and relax. She did everything we asked her to do and it meant the world to us knowing that our dogs were safe and cared for while we were away for the day. She was respectful to our home, too. Michelle sent us photos and updates after each walk so we’d know what they were up to, and she’s always been incredibly friendly and pleasant. She also knows a lot about pets, and has experience with special-needs dogs, which helped because one of our dogs is blind and just needs a little extra TLC. We are so glad we found Michelle. I highly recommend her and will book her again for sure.”


“Barbara was fantastic. She arrived when scheduled, and followed all instructions regarding Dexter's care. Dexter is a shy dog and doesn't warm up too easily, but he enjoyed Barbara's company and was able to go out on an enjoyable walk during the day. Barbara was very professional and we will not hesitate to contact her when Dexter needs dog sitting and/or walking.”


About: I've been raised with dogs and cats since day one. They are part of my DNA. I'm kind and caring and will treat your pet like my own. I am pet free for the very first time. Your pet will be my total priority. Call me, Jean. I have great references. I'm trained in first aid I am retired from Alaska Airlines. I make several week long trips a year. Otherwise I am close at hand to meet your needs at your home or mine. My bungalow is fenced in and has good dog walking areas surrounding the property. I normally take my pets to the beach 2 blocks from my home. Walking intervals are every 3 hours unless more is needed.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide companionship for their pets. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special needs, and I always treat each animal as if they were my own. My focus is on keeping pets happy, safe, and loved while giving owners peace of mind. I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to devote plenty of time to caring for pets. I’m available on weekdays and weekends for boarding, drop-ins, and walks. Your pets will always get the attention, playtime, and care they need without feeling rushed. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by following their regular routines in their own home environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions on feeding, exercise, and medications, and I give plenty of attention, play, and affection to keep them happy while their family is away. I also prioritize safety by keeping doors locked, checking that gates are secure, and always supervising outdoor time on walks or in fenced areas. My goal is to give pets the same level of care and trust they’re used to, while giving owners peace of mind that their home and pets are in responsible hands.

About: The services I provide include dog walking, dog feeding, and playing with a dog. I also can provide these services to cats as well as scooping the litter box. My experience: Most recently, I walked my sisters mixed 20lb dog twice a week for the past two years. He is reactive towards other dogs and I had to learn how to walk him properly with that in mind. I have also dog sat for family, just hanging out and making sure the dog was fed and felt comfortable. Currently, I am able to fit care for your pets in whenever needed. I recently moved and have not yet found a full time job, so your pets are my priority! I keep my cat indoors and clean weekly to ensure her fur is not picking up anything gross. In my sisters home, I pick up any accidents from her dog and make sure his face is clean before I let him back into the house. I also wipe his paws down so he is not tracking dirt in the house. There is no fenced in area so he’s stayed leashed at all times with a harness on.

“Bella helped me walking my dog Lucas for 3 months and I can say she was GREAT, my dog loves her and will miss her now that we had to move. Thank you for your flexibility and for taking care of Lucas so well.”


About: I've homed many breeds. Growing up, we raised Doberman Pinchers and German Shepherds. As an adult I've trained and homed Dutch Shepherds and a Mini Goldendoodle. All have been great! I have a teacher's schedule. Monday through Friday with holidays and vacations off. I am flexible to meet your fur baby's needs throughout the week. Also, Summer gives me even more flexibility to care for your furry loved ones! I have a fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood on a dead end road. Traffic is minimal and typically only those who live on the street.

About: Ive been dog sitting for a while now and nothing beats the feeling of meeting a new pup that I can love and adore. Ive had the pleasure of sitting elderly dogs, playful dogs, chill dogs and medicated dogs. I also had a dog of my own, BearBear, who unfortunately passed from old age. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he had a great life. I will treat your baby with the same love I gave to Bear. Pets are precious, innocent creatures. Caring for them means so so much to me:) I do Rover full time and I’m not in school anymore, so I am at home and available almost all day everyday. I also live with my parents, who are retired and work from home. They are probably the most animal loving people you will ever meet. My boyfriend is also at my house majority of the time, and he is just as excited as I am to play with a bunch of doggies. So majority of the day there will be 4 people in the home to constantly play and cuddle with your puppy:) Every dog and their owner is different, so I will be more than willing to comply to any personalized instructions. There is a big park right near my home, perfect for walks. And I have a spacious living room for chilling, naps, and long belly rubs.

“Aly was great with my pup. She always sent multiple photos and a little narrative as to how the walk went for my pup. She kept in contact with me through text which was great when any issues occurred. She made sure she had plenty of water and her toys and chews before putting her into her crate. She followed care instructions to the T. Sad that she started more days in her office at work. But I will keep her in mind for future care.”



About: All of my life I have ALWAYS been an animal lover. They are always happy to see you and love you unconditionally. They are always treated like family to me. I am currently working full time from 7-3pm, but I am available right after work and open all weekends. I am available to stop in or stay at your home if needed. My 2 dogs are the love of my life. They are brother and sister dachshunds from the same litter. I never feed them people food, except for vegetables and they always get a vitamin every morning.

About: Hi everybody, my name is Liz and I look forward to caring for your adorable animals! I understand that your pets are part of the family and it is difficult to leave them when going away. That’s why I hope to provide the best care so your animals can continue to thrive. I started walking my neighbors dog as a little kid for extra chore money which soon expanded to walking multiple dogs in my neighborhood. Throughout my 20s I assisted friends & family with walking and house sitting. I am comfortable with cats as well and currently have two cats of my own. I have experience with injections for diabetic cats as well and oral medications & ear drops for both dogs and cats. If it is allowed by the owners, I’m happy to take your dog in my car to the park or beach for extra exercise and entertainment. Please reach out with any questions and I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! I currently work part-time as a group therapist working 7am-3pm with rotating weekends. I am available to spend the night at your home regardless of my part-time schedule. I have two friendly cats who have a lot of experience being around dogs. I have plenty of space for a dog to move around and I don’t mind dogs being on the couch.

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was about 14 when I would watch/feed/walk my neighbors dogs. I have always owned dogs and am very familiar with caring for them. I have also been fostering dogs through FOHA RI since 2013 and have had many dogs in my home. I have cared for, taken to adoption events, processed applications, and completed the adoption process for all the dogs in my home as fosters. I have also dog sitted many friends/family members dogs over the years. I mainly work from home so I'm around to keep your pups company throughout the day. I'm available for boarding as long as I have enough notice and don't have any schedule conflicts! My schedule is flexible to be available to come and take your pup/s for a walk, and my home has a large fenced in yard for your dogs to play in when staying here. I have a very friendly Golden Retriever mix who loves other doggies and will be happy to keep them company! Your dogs will have free range of my home as well as the care and love they deserve ❤️

About: Hi there! My name is Meg, and I’m a trained dog care professional who cares deeply for the pets entrusted to me. Whether you’re looking for someone to walk, train, play with, or just keep your dog company, I’d be happy to lend a helping “paw” and get to know your beloved furry friend! I’ve worked at several dog daycare centers and training facilities, where I learned valuable skills and earned experience in the pet care field. I’ve cared for dogs both one-on-one and in groups of up to 40 dogs at a time. I realize how difficult it can be to find pet care providers who genuinely care about the animals they’re responsible for and reflect that consistently in their practice. That’s why it’s important to get to know the person taking care of your dog to ensure it’s the right fit for everyone. My goal is to ensure that your furry friend is well taken care of, from their physical health and safety to their emotional fulfillment and wellbeing. What makes it all worth it is seeing the excitement in a pet’s eyes (and tail!) when they see me and know they’re about to have a great day! I have an open and flexible schedule, available for daytime care sessions any day of the week, as well as overnight sitting sessions as requested. I tend to prefer meeting a client and their pet(s) before scheduling a session so that I can get to know them, their space, their needs, and their preferences.

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs of every kind since I was 8 years old. I love animals! Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to take care of, walk, feed and love their pets and your furry family members will be so happy here, and so will you, that your babies are so well cared for and loved. We are right near the airport also. Those traveling from TF Green will enjoy the convenience that my home provides. I am retired and dedicate my time to furry family members. My dog has passed away and I now help others take care of their loved ones instead of getting another fur baby. I love taking care of and caring for cats and dogs so much and this is my passion. I have a spacious home where me and my husband live and a large fenced in yard. Your dog will be well cared for, get plenty of exercise and lots of love.

About: I’ve always cared for animals my whole life! Always helped family members and neighbors growing up. I’ve been doing foster care as well which is leading me into starting my own dog boarding and walking business! I do it for a career! Best decision of my life. I take dogs along for my work day full of walking other dog! We stop by beaches, parks, and woodsy trails as well. I have a fenced in yard and three wonderful fur babies at home that other pups can relax and play with! 2 are fosters who are amazing Aimee and Zan. Then my rescue lab Luna


“Ianna has been a big help with my rescue puppy. He is quite large and has a ton of energy but she has been really good with him. I feel so much better knowing that he isn't stuck in his crate all day while I'm at work. I will definitely be continuing her services in the future.”
